Pat can barely contain her emotions. Meanwhile Jim lends a hand.

Enjoying each other's company, Jim tells Christine he'll be starting off the Christmas lights around the green, as he's won the prize of switching on the lights at The Bull. For a moment Christine is reminded of Christmases past. She's already decorated her room with greenery but Jim offers to put up Christine's lights, and he'll fix her guttering while he's up there.

Lynda's determined that the Village Hall will be wonderfully decorated for her Cabaret Night, so Robert's rooting through the loft for lights. An old plastic walrus, that's been there for years, gives Lynda an idea - she'll hold a table decoration competition. Jim turns up unexpectedly to see Robert. He needs advice from someone who knows his way round a tool box. 

Pat shows Kathy the Facebook photo of Rich. Kathy admits there are similarities to John but points out it's only one photo, at one angle. Kathy worries that it's all too much for Pat but Pat can't see how she can stop herself from thinking about the boy every second of every day.

Pat throws herself into work and Tony worries that she'll wear herself out. Pat can't see any other way of getting through the whole day without screaming.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
